The Halifax makes banking easy

5
I find the online banking easy to use and reliable. I am reminded by text how much I have in my account to make sure I have enough money t cover direct debits. This is very helpful indeed. The staff in my local bank in Penzance are efficient freindly and very helpful. Reviewed on: 6th January 2019

They do not care in the slightest

1
If I could dump them I would, when I was self employed and trying to establish a business they were worse than useless, I couldn’t in all honesty recommend anyone to bank with HBOS. I’ve been a customer of theirs since the 1980s and I am good at managing my finances but they don’t take that into account. They are the epitome of everything that is wrong with the banking industry Reviewed on: 5th January 2019

Great Bank

I have my household direct debits all set up to be paid monthly and have never had a single problem. I am really happy with the service I receive fro the Halifax. Reviewed on: 5th January 2019
